  1. i would think nothing really special (aside from the distance you travelled and the fact that you would be very very lonely) happens.
  2. I want to state that China grew technologically faster than any other place in the world. the things that made the difference in the 1700s when the western caught up and passed asia, was the discovery of the new world and the will to conquer lands. this simply gave Europe a huge boost in wealth enabling them to conquer more lands, etc. The chinese model worked for nearly (or more... always forget the dates) 2000 years before a slight (and not that long if you think about it) setback in the 1700s.
  3. In that particular case... wouldn't it depend whether or not the first chicken farmer abducted a fowl, or simply stole eggs that he kept for himself?
  4. Or they just don't know how to contact the CDC (or even what the CDC is?). I think that in a population, most people, when confronted to something weird will call the newspapers first. about the title quote... wasn't it originally used for a moose? (well the first time i heard it was in a documentary about the moose invasion of PEI).
  5. Uhm... if we have a cure for something, why is it a problem if more people have it. there may be some economical repercussion, but in the case of glasses at least, those are good. our quality of life is WAY better than it was 50000 years ago.
  6. I also enjoy them... They are actually well done. at least well done enough that someone made the mistake! and they have nice visuals (I really like the giant weird ocean going thing in alien planet).
  7. And that's why we like them. we can take the heat!
  8. really? wow... I actually never read anything Freud said... but i'll have too... dreams are cool... especially when you have lucid ones! about the blind dreams. I just have a question, is there a hierarchy. because normally, sight and hearing are the main things we have in dreams, with the rest being nearly irrelevent. so would blind people usually have, i guess hearing and touch dreams? does anyone know someone who's been blind from birth to ask them?
  9. do you mean... as in becoming the Hulk?? why would you say that?
  10. The point of these experiments is that, people will hear : "Flies in space" and go "wow this is pretty cool". this will look as if NASA is doing something important (although incomprehensible to them). This conversation that we have now is the proof of that. Its useless for science, but great for PR.
  11. I'm not an expert in neurology, but i recall reading some articles (or talking to a neurologist?) saying just that. I don't know if it worked or not, or even if people are still looking into it... mmm i'll try to find more info though.
